I've been speaking to Armadillo Merino who are really in touch with next to skin clothing. They have developed clothing from natural, merino wool fibres combined with amazing technology. Anyway we reckon that there is an advantage to be had while racing since it is an extreme environment for my skin, lots of heat and sweat from the concentration involved, especially in summer when its combined with heat. I also suffer from eczema around the joints so staying as comfortable as I can while I'm racing is really important for me, concentrating on the job instead of feeling uncomfortable could give me an edge and its also fireproof (wool doesn't burn). Therefore I'll be wearing Armadillo Merino base layers under my homologated racewear and there are plans to get some balaclavas made especially in my size. Thanks Andy for all your support and genuine interest in my wellbeing.......Please check them out yourself at www.armadillomerino.com.
